Chicago Booth interview (11/25)

Just came back from Chicago Booth interview, a few questions to share with you.

Interview was arranged in Starbucks. Actually, the shop was very noisy. I made the suggestion to talk outside, one of huge mistake I made in the interview.

The interviewer was Chicago Alumni, technical background and working in sales position, very warmhearted and easygoing.

The questions are pretty normal:

Go through your resume

Why MBA, why now and why Chicago

What area do you want to study in Chicago, ask some details about courses and interested club, whether attended school tour or info session

What is your weakness and how do you improve it through Chicago (in fact, I had bad answer for this question, I just repeated Why MBA answer)

NO formal question about leadership and teamwork.

When I went through the resume, I may spend too much time (>3 min) and mentioned too much detail. He stopped me several times and tried to speed up. He also asked some small question during my talk, such as what role are you played in the task, are you the leader of this project and how do you lead. I gave short answer and replied with only one or two sentences.

Overall feeling is no need to prepare too much, just like casual talking, but he can judge me through small questions. I did not answer very well for those small questions.

The huge mistake I made was that I suggested talk outside. In fact, the temperature is really low and he only weared the shirt, which cause us finish the interview in less than 20 minutes, a very bad sign. Strongly suggest to find a comfort place to have a interview.

Wish it helps and good luck for all of you! Wish every one's dream come true!

放松, 放松. 当你把进 TOP MBA 当做梦想 (就象CHASEDREAM这个名字)来追的话, 难免会紧张, 难免会不自然, 难免会出错. 其实这是一件最基本的事 : 你应该注意你的谈话对像, 他穿了什么, 外面天气怎么样, 这些细节的东西是一个在职场上混的人最基本的 INTER-PERSONAL SKILLS. 说的深一点, 你当时想出去谈无非是要让他和你都听清楚点, 容易实现你的梦想, 但是你考虑过你的 PARTNER 吗? 你觉得一个 LEADER 会这样吗? 何况他有可能是决定你命运的人. 其实很多人在面试上被淘汰其实是不会做人而不是不会做题. 这些人与人的细节上, 西方人要比我们出色的多. 但是结果还没下来, 可能那人尽管冷, 但是你二十分钟发挥出色, 他决定让你去 CHICAGO 学学做人也是有可能的...

Appreciate your advice! You are right, I really need to be more mature. This kind of skill cannot be practiced in the interview, and that is the purpose of interview.

lz没关系的,芝加哥的校友都非常的nice。他会理解你的。

我哥大面试的那个问题回答的也不好,问你的weakness然后再问你How chicago can help you? 整个就是一个胡说,呵呵!而且面了一个半小时,问题都非常detail而且她还时常打断我,challenge一下,所以take it easy.
